Father's Day

we're almost at the end of the week and i finally got around to blog about the Father's day we had last Sunday. we didn’t get up to much because Jim is a homebody and he enjoys staying in and doing nothing. 

 

after breakfast, we went to the Italian deli to get our lunch. we bought two different types of prosciutto, salami, buffalo mozzarella, marinated swiss brown mushrooms, marinated artichoke hearts, marinated eggplant and kalamata olives.

i arranged them on a wooden board and i also made fresh bread first thing in the morning to accompany our antipasto. Jim opened a bottle of red from his collection which he saved for special occasions like these and he had two glasses. the weather was so beautiful as we lunched in our verandah soaking in the sun. sometimes it's so much more enjoyable when we have lunch at home. we could take our time without having to worry about boo getting agitated in his high chair. he could go play in the garden after he finishes his lunch while we continue to finish ours. 

we were meant to finish the meal with the vanilla panna cotta with Campari jelly but Jim was too full for any desserts so we had to save them for later.

we went out for a walk just before the sun went down. i was hoping to take some photos of daddy and boo but i brought the wrong lens with me. lucky i managed to get a couple of decent photos. 

 

i'm glad Father's Day only comes once a year. by the end of Sunday, i was knackered. Jim on the other hand, felt all relaxed because he had a two hours nap after lunch.
